The two or three-dish cake stand is the ideal accessory for serving sweets or savoury hors d'oeuvres with a stylish, sophisticated table setting. The top tier, featuring a smooth and unadorned surface, is in contrast with the lower plate, decorated on both sides. The design of the ring knob, meanwhile, cleverly incorporates one of the distinguishing traits of the “Dressed for X-mas” collection: the angel's halo, a recurring element that Wanders proposes, in stylised form, in various items created for Christmas table settings.
